Prove that the equivalence classes of an equivalence relation
form a partition of the domain of the relation. Namely, suppose ?
be an equivalence relation on a set ? and define the equivalence
class of an element ?∈? to be
[?]?:={?∈?|???}.
That is [?]?=?(?). Divide your proof into the following three
peices:
Prove that every partition block is nonempty and every element
? is in some block.
Prove that if [?]?∩[?]?≠∅, then ???. Conclude that the sets
[?]? for ?∈?...
Question 1. Equivalence Relation 1
Define a relation R on by iff .
Prove that R is an equivalence relation, that is, prove
that it is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive.
Determine the equivalence classes of this
relation.
What members are in the class [2]?
How many members do the equivalence classes have? Do
they all have the same number of members?
How many equivalence classes are there?
Question 2. Equivalence Relation 2
Consider the relation from last week defined
as:...
Prove that cardinality is an equivalence relation. Prove for all
properties (refextivity, transitivity and symmetry). Please do this
problem and explain every step. The less confusing notation the
better, thanks!
Determine whether the given relation is an equivalence relation
on the set. Describe the partition arising from each equivalence
relation. (c) (x1,y1)R(x2,y2) in R×R if x1∗y2 = x2∗y1.
Test, state and prove a theorem that defines a set of minimum
congruence criteria for each of the following quadrilaterals:
parallelograms, rectangles, and rhombi.
select the relation that is an equivalence relation. THe domain
set is (1,2,3,4).
a. (1,4)(4,1),(2,2)(3,3)
b. (1,4) (4,1)(1,3)(3,1)(2,2)
c. (1,4)(4,1)(1,1)(2,2)(3,3)(4,4)
d. (1,4)(4,1)(1,3)(3,1)(1,1)(2,2)(3,3)(4.4)
